Oracle on VMC

Has any one has any experience of deploying oracle workload on VMC ?

Does Oracle officially supports oracle workloads when installed in i3 Bare metal servers in AWS ?

Dear Rajeev

Oracle on VMC is supported as it is for on premises vSphere.

You have many ways to support and mitigate issues:

- vSphere & SDDC Logs to track activity

- Dedicated cluster

- Dedicated SDDC

- Core limitation to reduce licensing

You can find more details here:

- https://blogs.vmware.com/apps/2017/01/oracle-vmware-collateral-one-stop-shop.html

- and to show Oracle & VMware are working closely: https://www.oracle.com/corporate/pressrelease/oow19-oracle-and-vmware-091619.html

Hope that helps

ebernard​ ... great info, quick question, the support policy changes, while it says oracle is support on vmware (summarization) does Oracle call out anywhere they specifically support VMC on AWS?

Apologies for this late reply!

You can find our blog about this: https://blogs.vmware.com/apps/2019/10/oracle-on-vmware-support-policy-changes-oct-9-2019-metalink-no...
and yes, this is officially available on Oracle Metalink here: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?id=249212.1
